make sb complete?

As titled, would you like to interpret this phrase with examples? I often hear somebody says by doing something make him or her complete, but I do not think I understand the precise meaning there. Thanks a lot.

Ugh. It means the person feels that the other person makes him whole, makes him a complete person, is a complement to what he is. I hate this sentiment.
